  33. <Insert Picture Here> Comparison with ASCP 37

  34. Comparison with ASCPSolution methodology Rapid Planning ASCP • Single pass • Constructive heuristic • No mathematical programming • Pegging is post-process • FIFO only • No cross-pegging • Incremental solve • Output created demand by demand • Freeze existing output, add changes (e.g., “hot demands”) on top • Safety lead time • No detailed scheduling • Resource capacity at day level • Day boundaries for resource loading • 3 phases • Supply Chain Optimization (linear program), Memory-Based Planner, High Level Scheduler • Embedded pegging • In middle (MBP) solution phase • FIFO or priority-based Quantity-based safetystock targets • Bulk solve • SCO must first solve to completion, then provides output in its entirety • Quantity-based safety stock targets • Detailed scheduling • Minute-level resource capacity

  35. Comparison with ASCPFunctional comparison Rapid Planning ASCP • Designed for rapid simulation • Fast one-pass heuristic • Simulation results in memory • Quickly edit planning inputs (demands/supplies, BOMs, routings, etc.) for simulation • UI: mass edits, plan compare • Multi-plan collaboration • Merge changes from multiple plans into single master plan • Planning modes • Unconstrained, Enforce Capacity Constraints • Enforce Demand Due Dates after initial release • Decision rules only, no cost optimization • Limited process, project mfg support • Batch planning oriented • Multi-phase, math programming • Simulation results flushed to database • Make changes on transaction source instance, re-collect • No mass edits; plan compare requires Advanced Planning Command Center • Single-plan collaboration • Multiple planners must work on same plan • Planning modes • Unconstrained, Enforce Capacity Constraints, Enforce Demand Due Dates • Optional cost-based optimization • Process manufacturing support • Project manufacturing support

  36. Customer ProfileRapid Planning Target Industries Rapid Planning is a good fit in industries that have: • Volatile demand • Variability in execution • Frequent engineering change orders • Short product life cycles (numerous NPI) Supply Chain Attributes: • Discrete manufacturing • Internal or outsourced manufacturing • Minimal DRP requirements • Mfg of Electronics • Mfg of Medical Equipment • Semiconductor (outsourced mfg) • Communications • Mfg of Machinery • Note: • No support for detailed scheduling constraints (Process manufacturing) • No support for project netting (A&D) • Not suited for distribution oriented industries (CPG) • No shelf-life planning (Life Science, Med-Device)

  37. High Value Questions & Issues Questions to ask VP of Supply Chain or Operations • Have your customers expressed dissatisfaction with your ability to respond to their changing requirements? • How often do you run supply chain planning? The longer the interval, the better the opportunity for RP to provide benefits between planning cycles • How long does it typically take to respond to a customer inquiry for a large potential order? • Are you able to determine the impact of such a change in demand beforehand? • How quickly can you determine impact of a shortfall from a vendor or subcontractor? • Has variability in execution impacted your on-time deliveries? • Are you able to perform full stream supply and capacity evaluations during your S&OP process?

  38. Rapid Planning Deployment Environments Customers Who: • Using ASCP • Knowledgeable & sophisticated users • Challenging planning environment, looking for simulation capabilities • Purchased ASCP but never implemented • ASCP purchase was driven by IT not business • Difficulty gaining user acceptance • Still running MRP/Spreadsheets • Users typically lack advanced planning skills • Organization struggles with change

  39. Rapid Planning with ASCP installedRapid Planning Deployment Environment Key Points • ASCP CAB members have been asking for a quick simulation tool to complement ASCP • Need for speed and flexibility • Mass edit data for simulation what-if • Enables quick response to changes without sending shock waves through the entire supply chain • Very short learning curve for users with ASCP knowledge • Out of box integration makes implementation time significantly shorter than competition for fast ROI • Uses same data collection as ASCP • Use of RP will help planners see the value of embracing all of ASCP capabilities (many companies only run unconstrained)

  40. Rapid Planning, own ASCP but not installedRapid Planning Deployment Environment Key Points • User acceptance is often a major obstacle to successful planning tool implementations • Intuitive UI provides simple navigation • What-if capability provides short cycle of learning for planner • User can experiment with inputs and quickly see results which speeds their understanding and acceptance of RP • Can gain a year’s worth of experience in two days • Simplified engine is easier for planners to grasp • Using RP will help planners see the value of using ASCP and RP in tandem • Knowledge of RP will help them understand strengths of ASCP • Using full features of ASCP will not seem as daunting • Creates opportunity to use additional VCP products

  41. Running MRP/SpreadsheetsRapid Planning Deployment Environment Key Points • RP is a perfect stepping stone to move from unconstrained single org to multi-org constrained planning for customers that are now not moving beyond the traditional MRP paradigm. • Short cycle of learning and great UI will motivate risk adverse users to migrate from MRP • User can experiment with inputs and quickly see results which speeds their understanding and acceptance of RP • Simplified engine is easier for planners to grasp • Built-in analytics and integration with APCC aids change management • RP then can also be the stepping stone to an even richer planning tool like ASCP once their organization is ready for it. • Getting RP positioned opens the door for the use of Demand Management, Sales and Operations Planning, Advanced Planning Command Center, and of course ASCP and CBO
